Using Notification
Notification Profile Examples by HPDPS Object Type
Example 2 The following example shows how you can set up a notification profile for
a spooler and also specify events that apply to the logical printers and
queues contained in the spooler. The spooler contains multiple logical
printers and queues.
Assumptions, Example 2:
• The primary operator (adgreen) is responsible for managing the
spooler.
• The backup operator (fgbrown) is to be notified for the same set of
events.
The primary and backup operator are to receive messages for all
spooler events contained in the default, attention, and configuration
classes.
• The primary operator is to receive the notifications using messages
and electronic mail when logged on and using electronic mail when
logged off.
Using electronic-mail ensures that all messages are received whether
logged on or not. In this case, the primary operator will receive
duplicate messages when logged on.
• The backup operator is to receive the same messages using electronic
mail.
• The operators need to know if
— a queue is or has been backlogged
— a queue or logical printer has been cleaned, created, modified, or
deleted within that server
• The administrator who created the spooler, jswhite, only monitors
the default class of events for the spooler, Spool1, and objects
contained in the spooler by electronic mail.
To set the notification profile for spooler Spool1, enter:
pdset -c server -x "notification-profile= \
{event-identifiers=class-server-attention \
class-server-configuration \
object-cleaned \
object-created \
object-deleted \
object-modified \
queue-backlogged \
